    Description

    In this drawing workshop with artist Lynn Bennett-Carpenter, students will learn to use textile design strategies of mirroring and repeat to create their own original drawings. Inspiration will be drawn from incredible textiles from around the world that employ these drawing strategies as the basis for woven works. 

    Using drawings or tracings, participants will create their own drawing. These drawings will then form various repeat patterns using hand transfer techniques (not digital). These patterns then serve as the basis for a drawing or cartoon. 

    This workshop is offered at a discounted rate thanks to support from Good Hart Artist Residency.

    Cancellation & Class Policies

    Cancellation Policy for Petoskey Classes (In-Person)

    Student Withdrawal
    Requests for cancellation by the student at least seven (7) days prior to the first day of class will be honored (minus a $20 processing fee).  NO REFUNDS will be given for a student cancellation made less than seven (7) days in advance of the first day of the class.

    Class Cancellations (Weather)
    When Public Schools of Petoskey are closed due to inclement weather, CTAC-Petoskey classes are canceled. We will do our best to provide a make-up opportunity for the missed class. Refunds will not be given if the student is unable to attend the rescheduled session of class. Workshops and one-time classes will be handled on a per-class basis. School of Ballet students are asked to make up the missed class in an alternate session approved by their instructor.

    Student Absence
    We are unable to offer refunds or make-up sessions for classes missed due to student absence.

    Minimum Enrollment
    Crooked Tree Arts Center reserves the right to cancel any class that does not meet its minimum student enrollment prior to the first class session. If a class is cancelled by CTAC for lack of enrollment, CTAC will offer a full refund to the student in the manner in which tuition was paid. (Cash payments will be refunded by check.)
